We love the easygoing desert vibe of this MCM-inspired living room. The succulents provide the color while the minimalist color scheme allows texture and shape to take center stage.
Chartreuse & Cozy
Chartreuse and orange provide MCM bursts of color in this living room while the gray sectional and fireplace surround create dramatic contrast.
